Competitive Pricing

The biggest news this year is a change of names. The 2016 Hyundai Genesis returns as the 2017 Genesis G80. Hyundai is following in the footsteps of Toyota, Honda and Nissan by creating their own luxury division, which they've named Genesis. Hyundai hopes to compete with Lexus, Acura and Infiniti.
Other than a name change, the 2017 G80 also gets several equipment updates and more standard features. There is a new Premium package available, while many of the items on the old Tech and Signature packages now come standard on the car. With these changes though comes a jump in base price, which now starts at a little over $41,000.

In terms of size and features, the G80 competes with midsized luxury sedans such as the BMW 5-Series and the Mercedes E-Class. While very well-equipped, the Hyundai comes in price closer to entry-level luxury cars such as the BMW 3-Series and the Mercedes C-Class. For those willing to overlook a little bit of brand snobbery, the Genesis represents an excellent luxury value, offering an excellent luxury and performance value ratio than anything in its segment.
